I can't even understand a business decision like fighting JGL on a Sandman project. Like, you have top tier talent writing and directing your project. You have the original creator on board. And you decide to gently caress with it just so you can... what? Neuter it and water it down so much that you'll just end up hiring Brett Ratner to direct and Luke Evans to star? Good work on building a franchise, you loving idiots.

Spider-Man looks as bad as Black Panther looks good. It's probably his first costume, though, and they'll have a new one by the end when Tony gives him money.

I like the goggle eyes.

I think Spidey looks great in an understated classic 1960s kind of way, and Black Panther looks super awkward and dorky :shrug:

The line delivery totally sounded like Toby Maguire to me, though.

It looks great. Nothing will ever match the ASM2 suit but they wanted to get away from that design language. And honestly, this new suit looks like a genius 16 year old might have read up on screen printing and made it himself.

The costume seen here is supposedly the one that Tony makes for him, hence the fancy eyes. The homemade costume is a hoodie-based affair. Hence why he's on Tony's side at this moment in the film, but switches to Cap's later.

It's a fine tradition created way back when by Secret of Ooze.

I've always maintained that Secret of the Ooze was 20+ years ahead of its time.

e: I mean, people really got excited about a superhero film with a ninja-weapon-wielding protagonist who doesn't take anything seriously and constantly breaks the fourth wall in 2016 with Deadpool. Secret of the Ooze did all that before it was cool.

I realize that rankings mean nothing, and these articles are garbage, but come on. Iron Man 3 was a committee-designed turd.

I think you could give these 13 films to any forum member and you'd get a completely different list. These movies aren't objectively better or worse than each other, certain ones just hit certain notes for some and not others. I have my reasons for liking each over the next, but none of them are truly objectively bad - a bunch of them just don't work very well for me personally. Mine are something along the lines of:

13. The Avengers
12. Ant-Man
11. Avengers: Age of Ultron
10. Thor
9. The Incredible Hulk
8. Iron Man II
7. Thor: The Dark World
6. Iron Man
5. Iron Man III
4. Captain America: Civil War (tentative)
3. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
2. Captain America: The First Avenger
1. Guardians of the Galaxy

For example, Iron Man II has tons of issues as a film. But personally I'd rather watch it over Thor, a much less problematic film, any day of the week. It's got some good action work, some really solid set pieces, I love Sam Rockwell, RDJ is always a blast to watch, etc. Thor just seems like a slough in comparison.

I don't even understand why they felt it was necessary to make it so that Howard didn't dick over Vanko's dad. I've watched Agent Carter, Howard Stark is a dick. A charming dick, but a dick nonetheless. It'd totally be in his character to do that, and I'm sure they could even find a flippant justification like "Sure, he invented it. But it was safer in the hands of the good ol' US of A!" to solve it.

I mean, Slattery and Cooper are playing Howard 20-30 years apart. I don't think ageing-up young, svelte 30 year old Cooper to look in his 50s or 60s would have worked out too well. I think both are great in the role.

feedmyleg
Dec 25, 2004
True, but Iron Man II was in 2010, which was Slattery's first appearance. That same year, the Tron Legacy de-ageing was pretty rough and plastic-y. I'd imagine ageing up CGI ala Hayley Atwell in Winter Soldier wasn't all that great either.

But goddamn did Atwell look convincing in Winter Soldier.

I want the tone of a FF movie to basically be the tone of the cartoon Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Big, brash, fun, goofy, weird, and charming. Good sense of humor about itself, but still tells a good story.

I always loved Peyton Reed's idea of a 1960s-set Fantastic Four movie with a similar style to his Down with Love. Now that he's done Ant-Man he's shown he has the chops.

I figured out a way to solve both the diversity problem in Hollywood and to appeal more to international audiences: cast multiple actors of different ethnicities in secondary character roles. Then film all their scenes with all the actors in multiple languages. Then there will be different cuts of the movies for different territories that appeal to different regions! US audiences will never have to sit through the distasteful task of looking at another Asian actor again, but can't criticize Hollywood for diversity in their casting.

Whew. Problem solved. Where's my executive bonus :v:

Just read more about who all the new cast members of Thor: Ragnarok are playing, and according to Slashfilm Cate Blanchette is playing Hela.

According to that Wikipedia entry, Hela is the "Goddess of Death" as appointed by Odin. I'm not the most educated person about all this cosmic/Asgardian comics stuff, but could this be Marvel's way of creating a personification for Death for Thanos to fall in love with without having to pull that out of nowhere in Avengers 3? Folding Death into Hela to make it a little less silly of an idea?

I never got why this became so reviled. Yeah, she looks like she's striking a sexy pose and it comes off unnecessary and a bit awkward, but it's a still image taken mid-movement, you could grab any number of frames from any of the Marvel movies and find awkward looking poses. Is there something more to it?

Oh hey, Donald Glover has been cast in Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Presumably not as Miles Morales, as he's in his 30s now, and they'd probably want to save Miles for the 2020s as a passing the torch whenTom Holland has a few movies under his belt and Peter has Parker Industries to run.

But Glover's a really fun presence whenever he pops up, so I'm excited.
